Playing alongside them is Thomas Aldridge (Ron Weasley), Franc Ashman (Hermione Granger), Helen Aluko (Rose Granger Weasley), James Howard (Draco Malfoy) and Jonathan Case (Scorpius Malfoy). They are joined by a 42-strong cast, playing a variety of characters.

About Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
The production, which is presented in two parts, is based on the original new story by J.K.Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany. As the eighth story in the Harry Potter series, the play follows Harry Potter as an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three.
The play follows Harry, and his youngest son Albus, as they come to learn the uncomfortable truth that darkness sometimes comes from unexpected places.
More about the production
The play is split in two but both parts are intended to be seen in order, either on the same day (matinee and evening) or on two consecutive evenings.
The regular schedule provides performances on Wednesday to Sunday.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is produced by Sonia Friedman Productions, Colin Callender and Harry Potter Theatrical Productions.
